The Veterans Administration has, for years, been taking guns away from military veterans who have committed no crimes whatsoever. But now the Obama administration is planning to do to seniors, what it’s been doing to veterans for quite some time.

Reps. Scott DesJarlais and Duncan Hunter are going to introduce legislation soon to repeal the ban on military installations and/or recruitment centers. So please encourage your Representative to become an original cosponsor of both of these bills!

The Obama Administration is using the Charleston shooting to argue we “need” more money and more names to be fed into NICS. But background checks are already being used to deny guns to law-abiding Americans, and putting more names into NICS will only result in more honest gun owners being prohibited. Consider:

For nearly twenty years, Gun Owners of America has been warning about the anti-gun atrocities being performed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Justice Department against law-abiding veterans.

Anti-gun Senators Joe Manchin and Pat Toomey just announced they want to bring back their toxic legislation stripping Americans of their gun rights without due process of law. Their legislation sought to BAN many private sales of firearms, forcing countless gun buyers to run to a dealer and submit to a background check before making their purchase.

Last week, the Obama Administration took the first gun-related action AFTER the swearing-in of Loretta Lynch as Attorney General. The Administration is now pushing a “Unified Agenda” containing 12 proposed anti-gun regulations being planned by the Justice Department. To summarize the deliberately vague proposals, they include:

* Expanding the rights of people who came to this country illegally, which as GOA has pointed out in previous alerts, reflects the President’s apparent desire to import millions of additional anti-gun voters.

Contact your Senators to rebuke those who supported Loretta Lynch as Attorney General and to thank those who opposed her. Urge them to use the congressional “power of the purse” to remove the funding for every single one of Lynch’s new, anti-gun regulations.

Urge legislators to do everything in their power to repeal ATF’s ban on AR-15 “green tip” ammunition. The first opportunity for doing so is on the DHS funding bill, which could very well authorize Obama’s anti-gun Executive Amnesty.

Contact both of your Senators and urge them to hold up the Loretta Lynch nomination, particularly if the ATF continues its crusade to wage war on AR-15's by banning common ammunition, such as SS109 and M855 ammo.

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) is proposing to illegally suppress the AR-15 by banning SS109 and M855 ammunition for that rifle as “armor piercing ammunition” under a 1986 statute banning certain types of ammunition -- a statute which amended the Gun Control Act of 1968.

Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) have introduced legislation that would repeal Washington, D.C.'s draconian gun ban, would repeal the semi-auto ban and the microstamping requirement, and would turn D.C. into a “shall-issue” jurisdiction.

Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch has committed, under oath, to continue to push Eric Holder's unconstitutional anti-gun executive amnesty. She is in favor of a semi-auto ban, which should be of interest at a time when the Justice Department is using every means possible to ban semi-autos by executive fiat.

Even if you have already done so, it is important to once again register your opposition to the nomination of Loretta Lynch as Attorney General, a person who could very well be in line to be the fifth anti-gun vote on the Supreme Court.
